The 暗网禁区 Literary Centre joins a new initiative of Bologna Children麓s Book Fair 2021 Online through a digital program organized directly by the exhibitors by presenting of short film of its book THE TREE by Alexandra Salmela

An illustrated book for school and pre-school children and --听thanks to its ethical and ecological message -- also for their parents. The allegory about human dead-end thinking听and greediness introduces听an adventurous as well as an eco-philosophical level. Martina Matlovi膷ov谩, winner of the Golden Apple at the BIB 2009, illustrated the book.听M谩ria Rojko was its graphic designer.

Combining humour and suspense, the author tells an allegorical tale showing how greed can ruin humanity and the world around us. In the middle of a barren wilderness, a terrible monster called Bl枚egl枚ek lives under the roots of the very last tree, which he guards with his life. In the wilderness, there is also a palace where the Princess lives. Although she has everything, she dreams one night about a miraculous tree and the most dazzling star in the universe. In her pursuit of the dream, she goes out into the wilderness where she meets various weird creatures. When the Princess meets Bl枚egl枚ek, two opposing worlds and viewpoints clash. There follows an irreconcilable struggle in which hope, the will to change and unexpected friendship are all born.
